You'll basically anger any Canadians if you don't use the original commentary for the game. Crosby's Golden Goal is legendary!

[@joesakic91]

I returned to Vancouver for the 10th anniversary of Vancouver 2010 and I talked with the locals about that game to this day. Before that game, I bet a lot of Canadians are saying, "Fellas, winning in Salt Lake City in 2002 was great because it broke a 50-year drought of winning Olympic gold in our bread and butter sport. But this Olympic gold medal is the one that matters the most because if we don't beat the Americans, this will be the worst loss in Canada hockey history even worse than Lillehammer 1994."

hello brothers north americans i am argentinian and i love hockey

joel Joel necesitamos que Román abra la sección de hockey en boquita 😅🙌

[@user-rv1td7bf8i]

The play by play commentator was spot on several times on predicting when and who would score. What a great game!

[@ginonaccarato8500]

I think the commentary was added after because at the end he says crosby won 3 stanley cups and 2 olympic gold medals but this was 2010 and that hadn't happened yet.

[@poof5412]

Canada, the best hockey team to ever play😌

[@denisgauthier9191]

holy flashback!!!!! this was 9 years ago!!!!

[@alexacdc1234]

As a Vancouver it’s this is easily the best hockey experience anyone I’d us has ever experienced. A perfect way to win gold and get every fan glued to their tv. For those few overtime minutes all of Canada was united in support for our team and glued to their TVs

[@UzumakiNaruto_]

This hockey game was probably the last time that all of Canada was so united as one nation from coast to coast. Ever since then its been going down hill ever since and Canadians have become ever more divided.

[@sleocvreetly]

I love how you see the crowd sitting down together in sync at 18:20 LOL

[@dedric51]

Commentary kinda killed the atmosphere. Buddy wasn't really into it

[@Ayyyyther]

Man, I remember the USA team looked utterly crushed but I didn't think it was this bad. I was watching on one of those mini-tv's you put in the corner of your room back then so the quality of it wasn't that great.

Best team ever Go Canada

[@brandonr.4910]

Most uninspired announcer of all time.

[@DrAdrenalineTO]

The commentary doesn't do any justice to this history making game. There are other videos which capture just how emotional and unifying this game was for us Canadians. Even over 10 years later, there hasn't been anything that has come close to replicating the energy and exhilaration of that day.

[@abrahammorrison6374]

Listen to Blackwater Crude Canadian Gold Medal Hockey Song. It is a condensed 4 minute version of the 2010 Vancouver Winter Olympics hockey tournament.

28:41 helluve backcheck by Kaner there.

You can do it canda

[@MLPPrinceEclipse]

I remember my high school shut down and we all watched this in the gym, staying late to watch, we ERUPTED with joy when the golden goal went in! still get the chills

[@ginonaccarato8500]

I thought game was on a Sunday

now THAT's Hockey! The skill on this ice was astonishing.

It was over before it started

[@notseanmonahan2973]

'here comes crosby what can he do?" *scores the golden goal 5 seconds later*

[@Evil.Totoro]

it’s a commentary done years later hence he talks about Crosby winning 3 Stanley cups and 2 Olympic gold medals. It even says in the title is a look back at the event.

[@kevinwildish5678]

Commentary is brutal

Why is there a mock commentary?

[@dominiksapara8985]

Please full hockey matches from Nagano 1998. Thank you

[@ryanakearok7301]

USA 2 line Defence Rafalski too much ice time I’m glad Canada won

[@TheTTBT]

This must be retroactively commentated. Doc Emerson did the American call and I don't recognize this person from Canadian TV, or radio. He says "golden goal" in advance of the OT goal, which is suspicious given that Chris Cuthbert coined that expression after Crosby scored the winner - seems weird that he is hinting at Crosby scoring before he scores using the famous (famous in Canada) slogan for the OT winner.

[@jerma984]

They do say it's a throwback in the first 5 seconds.

[@chrissiebawn9357]

[@jackiemoon1612]

By far the worst play by play commentary I have heard in my life. Gold medal Olympic game and the guy is monotone

[@BigSleepyJoeCooking]

Seems kinda weird that both goalies are Canucks

[@jonathanclarke4529]

UK guy here. I got drunk in the afternoon watching this. The trouble from my missus was worth it. Go Canada

[@oilers000]

Hey IOC, let’s not re commentate a game that was played 9 years ago....

Still upset about this

[@ericlala]

this is basically a NHL all-star game
